Good number of motivated and caring people. Most employees want the company to succeed and put the time and effort to do their best work.

Cons

No work-life balance Constant fear of lay-off or reorg. No stability. Senior management micromanages to the point of suffocation. Years of failed strategy has kept the company from being successful.
